Truck Dreaming – 21/8/14 for Friday Fictioneers

Jamie had long dreamed of a truck of his own, and now he had it. Saturdays, he and Jeremy would get together and tinker. He was a lucky man: he had a friend to share his passion – and Jenny. Jenny brought morning coffees and evening beers; between-times he’d wave, and she’d smile.

In a motel bedroom, Jenny smiled at Jeremy, bringing morning coffees. She’d long dreamed of a man of her own.

She thought of Jamie’s truck, abandoned at the airport, and she dreamed of it disappearing – swallowed up by the grass, for all she cared.
